happy autumn! check out jess's heavy duty fall hiking boots hiding in the background.... |
tis the season for ants in the pants. perhaps a drive to pick some apples, pumpkins, noses, and fresh donuts and cider. we picked out some warm clothes and embarked on our journey to the walkway over the hudson (the world's tallest pedestrian bridge! who knew?)
 |
at the starting line....jeff was holding the camera because, of course, i had to check out the outhouse |
 |
vying for position to be the one to read the info signs first...fun, for some |
 |
moving right along...the wind cometh |
 |
quite the threatening sky, thank goodness there was just some random drops |
 |
making progress across the hudson, good times in the blustery wind |
 |
more good times in the wind tunnel |
 |
shann snapped this one |
 |
probably a neat place for a run on the water |
 |
"bridge" pose |
 |
the little boy wanted to test out the button, um, not a good idea |
 |
northern view |
 |
the never-ending train |

southern view & the mid-hudson bridge
|
my favorite picture, jess would beg to differ
 |
almost at the finish line, getting tired and hungry and of course i am only thinking of embarking on a journey to the lavatory...note to self, save the vat of coffee for after a two and a half mile walk |
 |
check out the flag painted in the street |
 |
the old train signal |
 |
there's the bridge from the ground |
 |
there's the little boy on the ground |
 |
the clouds decided to start making way for the beautiful blue underneath |
 |
ahhh, lunch |
 |
mr. football was the smart one to don a hat... we girls had heads of wind-twisted, crazy autumny hair |
|
 |
as reported in the june 2011 issue of real simple mag |
tis the season for a little exploring and lots of walking with the happy little ants.
